ASU Basketball Player Jeff Pendergraph says crowds are key to ASU home victories. He is hoping for a big ASU crowd this Sunday when Arizona visits Wells Fargo Arena.

Pendergraph and the No. 14/11 ASU men's hoops team, 20-5 and 9-4 in the Pac-10, will take on rival Arizona, winners of seven straight, on Sunday, Feb. 22 at 8 p.m. Pendergraph talked about the game at a session with the local media.

Pendergraph leads the nation in field goal percentage at 66.5 percent, is currently tied for the eighth-best mark in Pac-10 history and is even better in Pac-10 play (67.5 percent).
